3.2 Connexion à Raspberry Pi

To connect the monitor to a Raspberry Pi, you will need both the HD cable for video and the USB cable for touch and power.

  1. Connect one end of the HD cable to the Standard HD Port on the monitor and the other end to the HDMI port on your Raspberry Pi. Use the Micro HD adapter if necessary for your Raspberry Pi model.
  2. Connect the Micro USB cable to the Micro USB Port on the monitor. Connect the other end of the USB cable to a USB port on your Raspberry Pi for power and touch data.
  3. Ensure the backlight switch on the monitor is in the 'On' position.
  4. Power on your Raspberry Pi. The display should automatically detect and show the output.

For touch functionality with Raspberry Pi, power can be supplied via the Raspberry Pi's USB port. If using an external power source for the Raspberry Pi, ensure it is sufficient. For optimal performance, especially with older Raspberry Pi models, an external power supply for the monitor might be beneficial if the Pi cannot provide enough current.
